Предотвращенный Армагеддон. Распад Советского Союза, 1970-2000

That era was pivotal in shaping modern Russia and the world, but I wonder what drew the author to zoom in on these three decades specifically.

The detailed descriptions were fascinating but also dense — I’m curious if others found certain sections more accessible or challenging.

It seemed like a delicate act to keep both perspectives engaging without overwhelming the reader. Was this intentional or a happy accident?
